the death of nurse mary agyapong is among the cruelest of the pandemic. she contracted covid—19 while pregnant and didn't live to know her daughter, who was born safely. heartbroken, her husband ernest focused his attention on the burial and was unaware as nearly 10,000 donations began pouring in online. i really actually remain very grateful, you know, for the love, support and the generosity of the public. in just a few days, £186,000 was raised through a gofundme page set up by rhoda asiedu, a family friend living in birmingham, expressly to support mary's husband and the couple's children, aj and baby mary, during this heavy and trying time. but one year on, the beneficiaries still haven't received a penny, and lawyers suspect the fundraisers of playing loose with a custom at ghanian funerals. normally, when such donations are collected, it is given to the spouse, to almost reimburse him of such costs, and then to look after the child, things like pampers, baby food. mary never had the opportunity to bless her daughter, so there's been a lot of exp

dr deepti gurdasani from queen marys university in i from queen marys university in london, thank you very much. the organsiation representing hospital trusts in england has warned that it will take five years for some hospitals to catch up with the backlog of patient care caused by the coronavirus pandemic. nhs providers says covid—19 has resulted in the biggest backlog of care in england for 20 years. the chief executive of nhs providers, chris hopson, explained what he thinks could be done to improve the situation. well, i think it is going to be a very important and challenging task. what we have said today is that we need a plan, a team plan, between the nhs and government. on the nhs side, we are going to have to do do a range of different things. we're going to have to be bold and transformational. we're going to need to change the way that we provide some of this care. that's going to need the government to come up with some extra funding. in the past, you may remember, for example, in the early 2000s, when we had similar sizes of waiting list problems, we sort of got round

mary ibiyemi is 21 and lost herjob working in a take away last year. she was unemployed for eight months before finding a newjob and said she wasn't surprised by the figures. a lot of the people i know, they were also in my position and it was up to like all of us to help boost one another because we didn't know what we needed to do. we didn't know what feedback, we didn't know was going wrong. evenjust online, when i wasjust scrolling through, i found that within the black community, they feel that they need to, you know, not disclose their race orjust to change their name a bit so they can get more calls, more interviews. just something that we shouldn't need to be doing because it is the 21st century and everything should be... everyone should be feeling included. a woman has described being stabbed in the neck by the man who killed two people in the fishmonger�*s hall attack in london in november 2019. jack merritt and saskia jones were stabbed by a convicted terrorist usman khan during a prisoner rehabilitation conference. giving evidence this m

similar temperatures to today — could make 15 celsius through the central belt of scotland and around the marie firth. but the pollen levels are going to be high. we're in the peak of the tree pollen season, and levels will be higher across east anglia and the southeast than they were today because it'll be dry with some sunshine. high pressure is in charge of our weather as we head into the weekend. it's keeping these weather fronts at bay. overnight, any rain in the northwest of scotland will fade away. and it looks like saturday will be a dry day. again, breezy towards western scotland and northern ireland. the sunshine may turn a bit hazy. for many parts of the uk, it's going to be dry with some lengthy spells of sunshine and light winds, too. and temperatures may be peaking at 1a—15 celsius again, and that's near—normal for this time of year. as we head into the second half of the weekend, we start to see these weather fronts pushing further into the uk from off the atlantic — that means more cloud for scotland and northern ireland on sunday, and perhaps some patchy light rain in the

struggling to get medical care, as india is in the grips of a fierce second wave of covid—i9. 73—year—old mary was taken to six hospitals, none of which had a critical care bed for her. she died on her way to the seventh. her son anthony spoke to me from isolation. translation: all these years, she never needed to go - to a hospital, and when she did, i couldn't do anything for her. ifailed her. field hospitals built last year to add to existing facilities are already full. this one in pune is managed by this doctor who has been on the front lines since the pandemic began. what is different this time around? a single member of the family gets ill, the infectivity ratio has gone up, it is affecting young adults which is quite surprising. last year, it took more than six weeks for daily cases to double to the number seen at the worst of the first wave. this year, it's taken less than ten days for infections to grow twofold to the current high which has already surpassed 2020's peak. the government says people not following covid—i9 protocols has led to the surge but many experts believe that i

we also heard from another attendee of the event, and marie wilson, who gave stephanie first aid. amory wilson talked about how she had been on the same table as usman khan and that usman khan had been wearing this heavy coat, a pufferjacket. she said that someone at her table had said he must be going in that code. we heard that several people at the event had remarked on this because he was wearing. we also have heard that what the police have described as a convincing but fake suicide belts was hidden underneath that code that day. domestic abuse is a largely hidden crime, but now plumbers and electricians, who have regular access to people's homes, are being trained to spot signs of incidents of violence. theyjoin hairdressers, barbers and beauticians who have already undertaken training on how to help clients they suspect are in trouble. john mcmanus reports. getting ready for another repair job, paul smith has carried out thousands of them on local authority properties. but now paul and hundreds of his colleagues are joining the front line in the war against domestic abuse.

and a report by the marie curie charity, seen by the bbc, suggests that drug shortages caused by the pandemic meant that some patients suffered unnecessary pain. karen morrison reports. my mum was a really brave and beautiful woman. she loved her life and she lived it to the full. she really loved playing tennis — she'd play every week up until she became ill with the cancer. sheila lowe was 7a when she died last year from bowel cancer. after deciding to be looked after at home, her daughter susan became her main carer — but the country went into lockdown weeks later. we had a lot of difficulties getting hold of medicine. it would be sent electronically over to the local pharmacy. the pharmacy didn't have stocks. it was so frustrating. i think a couple of times i burst into tears in the... ..in the actual pharmacy. in a new survey of 1,000 unpaid carers, commissioned by marie curie, nearly two thirds of respondents said they didn't get all the support they needed to manage the pain of their loved one. 65% said they needed more respite care, and just over three quarters said they

medical facilities are falling short during a fierce and rapid covid surge. 73—year—old mary was turned away from six hospitals. she died on her way to the seventh. her son, anthony, spoke to me from isolation. "all these years she never needed to go to a hospital, and when she did, i failed her," he said. field hospitals built last year are already full. this one in pune is managed by dr sangram kapale, who's been on the front line since the pandemic began. right now, what i'm seeing is if a single member of the family gets positive, the entire family is positive. the virulence has gone up, the infectivity ratio has gone up. it is affecting young adults, which is quite, you know, surprising. deaths remain low compared to india's population, still to be conclusively explained, but hundreds are dying every day. the government says the flouting of covid norms has caused the surge, but many argue that's not the main reason. it cannot explain the kind of surge in cases that we are seeing now currently in india, which clearly suggests that there is a great role for highly infectious variants

the day's early match saw southampton fightback, for a much needed win at st marys. they got the better of burnley — who were two goals up — matej vydra with their second. but an action packed first half saw saints level by the break. danny ings making it 2 all... and nathan redmond's stunner won it for ralph hassenhuttl�*s side... 3—2 the final score. they're now 10 points clear of the bottom three. these three points are important. we're in a good position now. yeah, we haven't won so many games in the second half of the season — we have had massive problems with injuries and everything. we're now coming back to the team that we were at the beginning of the season. chelsea thrashed birmingham 6—0 to remain top of the women's super league sam kerr underlining chelsea's dominance with a first half hat—trick. she's now the top scorer in the wsl this season. second placed manchester city two points behind after a 3—0 win over tottenham. elsewhere, brighton beat manchester united, while everton and arsenal also won. edinburgh have been dumped out of the

dr deepti gurdasani, clinical epidemiologist and senior lecturer at queen mary's university london, joins me now. thank you forjoining us here on bbc news. the first question i would really like to address this to what extent do you think this new variant is behind this surge in cases? i mean, i think there is a link to the new variant possibly because a lot of the population that we are seeing these surges and are thought to have had a high level of exposure to the virus. in delhi for example about 50-50% of virus. in delhi for example about 50—50% of people had antibodies but this is not equally disputed some communities will have the more than others but to seek a rapid rise of cases in a short period of time in communities that we think had antibodies but this is not equally disputed as some communities will have the more than others but deceived a rapid rise of cases in a short period of time in communities that we think have been exposed widely is really unusual. it’s that we think have been exposed widely is really unusual. it's been described as _ widely is really unusual. it'

they're in to the second half at st mary's and it's currently two apiece — all the goals in the opening 45 minutes. aston villa take on fulham later while manchester united and brighton is the evening game. newcastle against tottenham kicks off just after two — with spurs bossjose mourinho believing his side need help from others to secure a top four finish. after every match, the ambition and the confidence to win the match, the next match, to reach the championship position, i don't think we depend on anything but ourselves, and results from other teams. i'm not going to say we are going to do it or we are not going to do it. we have to go one game at a time. there are five games in the women's super league this afternoon. chelsea have a two point lead at the top of the table and they're playing in the early kick—off against birmingham city. they lead 2—0 at half—time, sam kerr with the opener after erin cuthbert�*s shot was saved. everton against aston villa is also under way — that's goalless at the moment. the league cup final later this month at wembley has been approv

but, i mean, david cameron didn't break any laws by texting his friends marie she soon, did he? it just looks bad. —— rishi sunak. if you have the right degrees of transparency, people can text their friends until the cows come home. what matters what was discussed and was anything untoward happening? of somebody texts and they are just inviting some of for supper, that's no big deal at all, but if there is something dodgy going on for me need a bit more detail behind itjust to say, hold on a second, what was discussed? what was the issue that was being discussed. who are you representing at the time? or was it just two friends meeting up? that's the crucial bit of missing information. we need to have this better information. and equally, incidentally, the disclosure rules about who ministers meet and where they meet them, that should probably be a bit broader than it is now so it isn'tjust ministers who matter, it's also the political advisers, it's also the political advisers, it's also the political advisers, it's also senior civil servants. they all have influence. they

mary agyapong was a pregnant nurse in luton who died almost exactly a year ago from covid. her unborn child survived and was delivered by c—section. the inquest heard she had felt pressurised to stay at work in later pregnancy. campaigners are calling on the government to tighten up rules to ensure employers undertake a risk assessment, tailored to their pregnant workers' individual needs. our recent research showed us that 48% of pregnant women do not feel that their employers are following a risk assessment that is individual to them and, therefore, 57% of pregnant women told us that currently, they do not feel safe at work. about two thirds of pregnant women who have covid—19 don't have any symptoms. severe illness is very unusual, but more likely in later pregnancy. and the maternal mortality rate from covid—19 is 2.2 per 100,000 maternities. it is really small numbers compared to the number of women who are pregnant and having a very successful pregnancy and birth. so, yes, be really sensible, follow the guidance to the letter. the government has said it has no p

in a new survey of 1,000 unpaid carers, commissioned by marie curie, nearly two thirds of respondents said they didn�*t get all the support they needed to manage the pain of their loved one. 65% said they needed more respite care, and just over three quarters said they took on more emotional burdens. terri was diagnosed with terminal cancer three days before christmas, and she said two things when we got back to the hospital car park. the first one was, "i don't want to go because i don't want to leave you." and the second was, "i want to die at home." it was a given that i would do everything i could to allow are terri to die at home. when i needed respite, they struggled to get me somebody. i was lucky they got me somebody — i had a night sitter for one night. and on the second night when the sitter arrived, i had to tell her that terri had died. many people, when given the option, will choose to spend their final weeks at home. but these problems were seen in professional settings, too. at the start of the pandemic, hospices were not classed as a front—line nhs service, and t

earlier i spoke to professor michelle barrett, from queen mary university of london, who took part in the programme. she is also researched this area for many years. there is a memorial in what is now iraq, the basra memorial, which had the names of over 30,000 indians who had died in the mesopotamian campaign. on that memorial, they engraved the names of the white british officers and ranks, and the names of the indian officers, but the names of the indian rank and file, of which there were about 30,000, were simply put in printed registers and not put on the memorial at all. that is one example. another example which i looked at was what happened in east africa. where instead of commemorating those who had died individually, or even by numbers of them, what they decided to do was put up three statues, effectively, in the three principal towns of the region to commemorate with general inscriptions what they thought was probably around 50,000 africans who had died. we now know that that number was much higher. but they thought they were commemorating 50,000 africans with these three s
